Your clutch maintains the connection between your gearbox and your engine. When you depress the clutch pedal, two metal plates come apart and separate the engine from the drive wheels, allowing you to change gear. Bringing the pedal back up re-engages the plates and reconnects the engine to the drive wheels.
Any problems with your clutch can lead to a lack of control while driving. If you notice this, you should book a clutch replacement as soon as possible. Otherwise, your car will be at an increased accident risk.
A clutch should last 60,000 miles on average. If you drive carefully and look after the clutch, it can last much longer than this. Conversely, holding the clutch at the biting point for too long will wear it out quicker.
You should book a clutch replacement near you at the recommended interval or whenever you notice any of the following warning signs:
During a clutch change, a mechanic will inspect your clutch and gearbox condition to ensure the clutch is to blame before beginning the repair. Then, they will unhook the battery and disconnect the clutch and/or hydraulic slave cylinder before stabilising the engine.
Next, they will unbolt the pressure plate, check for any leaks and damage and then clean everything and replace as many parts as necessary. Once they have rebuilt the front end of your car, they will test the clutch to ensure they’ve fixed your problem.

If your car has a clutch problem and is dangerous to drive, you might not want to risk driving it to a garage. Fortunately, there are plenty of mobile mechanics who offer a mobile clutch repair service. They can come to your house or place of work at a time that’s convenient for you and complete a high-quality repair.
With specialist equipment and genuine or OEM equivalent parts and equipment used, a mobile clutch repair still gives you the same high-quality clutch change that you need - just in a way that works better for you.
Here are some of the other ways a mobile clutch replacement can make your life easier:
Convenience - Rather than having to find time to take your car to a garage and then trying to keep your life on track without it, you can have your clutch replacement completed at a location that works best for you. This could be your driveway or a car park at work during your normal day. This helps you avoid disruption.
Flexibility - You may be able to book a mobile clutch replacement on a weekend, evening or even overnight, depending on the mobile mechanics in your area. If your schedule doesn’t really accommodate maintenance at a traditional garage, this can make your life easier.
Transparency - You get to see what is happening during your mobile clutch replacement at all times. This makes it easier to trust the quality of the work and gives you the peace of mind that all the checks have been completed to the highest standard.
Cheaper - A mobile clutch replacement involves less overhead costs and expenses, so they are often at least competitively priced against, if not cheaper than most local garages.
A flywheel is a disc that connects to the crankshaft and rotates to generate energy, storing that energy for use at a later date. When your engine struggles to provide enough torque to keep the car moving, the flywheel will use its stored energy to take over. Your flywheel also ensures that your gears are working properly as you use the clutch.
Quite often, your car will need a flywheel replacement at the same time as a clutch change. As a result, flywheel failure includes many of the same symptoms as a faulty clutch. You should book a flywheel replacement if you notice:
The average dual mass flywheel replacement cost in the UK ranges from £750 to £1,500.
Birmingham is the second largest and most populous UK city after London, a fact which might go some way to explaining why it’s simply stuffed with things to do and see. Six universities keep the place youthful with a vibrant and multi-cultural grassroots art, music and literary scene. Birmingham’s international reputation has been built on its many celebrated cultural institutions. As well as housing the world’s largest pre-Raphaelite collection of artwork, the city is home to the Birmingham Royal Ballet, the Symphony Orchestra, the Repertory Theatre and the Barber Institute of Fine Arts as well a diverse range of other arts, theatre and music venues.
You’ll find high street and designer shops at the Bullring and Mailbox centres, and if vintage chic is more your thing then wander the quirky East Side for some unique finds. Birmingham’s drink and food scene is currently thriving, with exotic flavours catering for all tastes. It also boasts four Michelin-starred restaurants (more than any city in England except London) and street food that’s hard to beat. It may be a tightly populated place but Brummies love their green spaces. As well as the splendid Birmingham Botanical Gardens there are an additional five hundred and seventy-one parks to choose from - more than any other European city.
